Palantir’s vision is the philosophy of Nazi political theorist Carl Schmitt dressed up in jeans and a hoodie.

It is fundamentally anti-humanist, presents permanent conflict as inevitable, and seeks to build a technocratic power structure without even the minimal constraints of democracy.

Protesters add new conditions to ending blockades
Caroline O’Doherty reports:

Protesters have added new demands to the conditions under which they say they will end their blockades.

They now want the Dáil recalled immediately and want the ban on oil exploration off the Irish coast rescinded.

That is in addition to removal of the carbon tax from fuel products and price caps on agricultural diesel, auto diesel and home heating kerosene.

James Geoghegan, one of the organisers of the protests, told Newstalk the new demands came from discussions with protesting groups around the country.

Maria Steen: St Patrick’s day has become a celebration of everything other than Christianity

List of festivities reads more like a Gov-sponsored hook-up weekend

This is some good old fashioned Catholic rabble-rousing.

"Please, I'm not right wing, I just believe the list of St. Patrick's Day festivities reads more like a Gov-sponsored hook-up weekend"

5. Max and Francesca co-own a home in Washington, D.C., where they lived for years
and brought a daughter into the world. The sanctions against Francesca include a block on this
property that bars Plaintiffs’ from enjoying it or its value indefinitely, constituting an unreasonable
seizure under the Fourth Amendment.
6. L.C., Max, and Francesca also continue to face irreparable harms to their Fifth
Amendment due process rights. Max and Francesca’s spousal relationship, and their parental
relationship with L.C., has effectively been turned into criminal activity. Both Max and
Francesca’s chosen professions have been, and continue to be, impaired through the termination
of longstanding relationships, canceling of professional opportunities, and limitations on their
ability to engage fully in their professional lives.
7. At its heart, this case concerns whether Defendants can sanction a person — ruining
their life and the lives of their loved ones, including their citizen daughter — because Defendants
disagree with their recommendations or fear their persuasiveness. Sanctions, used appropriately,
are a powerful tool to disrupt and undermine the activities of terrorists, criminals, and authoritarian
regimes. Sanctions are abused, however, when they seek to silence disfavored points of view and
to violate the constitutional rights of people the government does not like.

Via @seamushughes.bsky.social, Treasury has blocked Francesca Albanese, her spouse, and their US citizen daughter from accessing her property based in IEEPA sanctions.

it's so funny to try to legitimize a moronic argument by claiming that it is supported by a growing movement of diverse thinkers and then you list the people who belong to that movement and every single one is stupid and/or racist
